Belgian singer Helena was unable to attend the Run to kick charity event in Brussels due to severe flooding in Bangkok. The singer shared on Instagram that she had been stuck in Bangkok for more than 24 hours and would not be able to reach the event on time. She had returned from a trip specifically to attend the event, which she had not missed in the past three years. The Run to kick event, organized by the Kick Cancer foundation, is a family-friendly and charitable run aimed at funding innovative cancer treatments for children. The Bangkok governor, Chadchart Sittipunt, declared a state of natural disaster in the city's 50 districts following heavy rains that began on Thursday. Between Thursday afternoon and Saturday morning, 300 millimeters of rain fell continuously, causing significant flooding on roads, canals, and surrounding buildings. The governor stated that the situation had "stabilized" and estimated that if the rain stopped, the water would drain within two to three days. According to AFP, many roadways were flooded, severely disrupting traffic in the city. Air Journal reported that while Bangkok's airports remained open, access was complicated. The Thai Ministry of Transport noted that some flights had experienced delays. At Don Mueang Airport, water reached parts of the runways in the south. The flooding has highlighted the vulnerability of Bangkok to extreme weather events, which are becoming more frequent due to climate change. Local authorities are working to manage the crisis and ensure the safety of residents, while also trying to restore normalcy to daily life.
